They’re getting creative with the angles they use for the Sunrise updates. Looks great!
Agree, looks better than the evening news presentation IMO.
Provides some nice depth to the set, which otherwise looks very flat and small usually.
They did still do green screen graphics while this set was around up to the point when they started doing this angle.
Not quite. They originally used the backdrop only, then they shifted the camera to catch the orange lightbox too. Now the camera is on a angle to catch more of the set.
Unfortunately that means Hunty is in HD too…
What happened to the old weather presenter on Spencer Gulf NN?
Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) Executive General Manager Tasmania, Ally Bradley, today announced that former weekend news presenter, Kim Millar, will become the Nightly News on Seven Tasmania news anchor.
He took a little while to get into the swing of things but I haven’t minded Peter Murphy doing the news. Kim Millar is a good choice though and as a familiar face will be able to slip right back in again for the viewers.
Murph said there will be a special edition of 7 TAS News at 9:30pm
Yep, completely local and live “special late edition of nightly news”, it included details about 6 new Tasmanian cases which was only released about half an hour ago.
A red backdrop on the studio and a green one for a live cross to Michelle Wisbey in Hobart. Some shots of the nightlife in Hobart… or lack thereof now since the pubs have closed.
Now some of the stories which were shown in the earlier bulletin but this is the first time I can recall a local Tasmanian late night bulletin, very interesting indeed.
An interview recorded “earlier in the evening” too which wouldn’t have been too long ago as it is dark in the background.
Haha - not 100% accurate with graphics, “Michael Breen” was the reporter for a story with a female voice and a cross to Sean McComish where he was apparently in “Olympia, Greece” rather than what looked like Launceston.
Let’s be real, this is one of the only times they’ve ever stepped outside their normal bulletin so we might see problems. Well done to the team for providing something local!
Oh yeah, fully understand. I was really impressed with the fact they did it and the quality of it was great . I’ll try and get some caps of it but it certainly was the first time I can think of where we’ve had a local Tas bulletin late so it was great to see.
When TT was axed, the Adelaide news became a 1 hour bulletin and the local news was bumped from 6.30 on 7.
Short updates to give their viewers local headlines and weather.
Done on both 7 Spencer Gulf and 7 Tasmania.
Why do they show the Adelaide bulletin there? In Victoria they don’t (normally) show the Melbourne bulletin for example.
Yes but why? 7 Adelaide don’t do this and they are pre-recorded, right? What is the point?
(Also I find it funny that they are branded as nightly news updates but are broadcast in the mornings.)
